Guest Designer for CAS Stencil...

I am thrilled to be guesting at The CAS Stencil Challenge this month,
after winning February's challenge with this card.......
I have been so lucky this month with guesting and it is has been huge honour.

The Challenge is Gilding Flakes and this is my card......

I used die cuts as my stencils and layered up silver gilding flakes to get more texture.
I also used vellum on the top layer 
and stamped onto cardstock underneath, in a few shades of grey.
It was a little tricky using vellum and the glue and it not laying flat 
but once you've an idea in your head you have to see it through......
Finishing off with heat embossing the sentiment 
and hi-lighting the tiny thistles heads, from the stamping under the vellum, with the flakes.

You will find amazing inspiration over on The CAS Stencil Card Challenge
from the friendly and talented design team.
Stay safe and well
Challenges I would love to enter....

Time for the reminder post, as the guest designer over at Uniko.....
The Uniko Challenge this month is spots and stripes with the option of stencil (s), 
which I have used.

After stamping The Hands Of Time central image I heat embossed with silver.
I stencilled the stripes of dots with white paste and left to dry.

This is to hi-light the Epilepsy cause over at Time Out...
Finishing off with silver foiling on the dots and a few splats.....

Guest Designer For CAS Mix Up

What a thrill it was to win the CAS Mix Up Challenge with this card....
I am equally thrilled to be the guest designer this month
and the challenge this month is Bleaching.........

This is my card.....

I have stamped and used bleaching and my choice is stencilling and splats.
After blending a few Distress Inks I stamped the image 
and then used bleach to take off the colour.
This then gives you a blank canvas to leave it as it is or colour it in with your chosen media.
I used watercolours to colour the flowers and leaving the numbers bleached out.
Finishing off with some stencilling and splats.
You will find fabulous inspiration over on the CAS Mix Up blog
from the amazing and very creative design team.......
Thank you so much for asking me to guest with you this month x.

Stay safe and well.
